Preface
Self-driving and electric on-demand taxis and shuttle buses are widely considered
as theoptimal means offuture urban transport. They seem to provide solutionsfor
the most pressing current issues in the mobility sector, such as road fatalities,
climate change, and pollution, as well as land use for transport. While those
vehicles are first being tested in controlled environments around the world today,
they may rapidly reach maturity due to the disruptive character of the underlying
innovations: According to the roadmaps of the European Technology Platforms in
theautomotivedomain,advancementsinsmartsensors,controlandcommunication
systems will enable the implementation of high-degree connected and automated
driving(i.e.,SAElevels3andabove)onthemotorwayandinurbanenvironments
in the 2020-25 time frame. This coincides with the projected begin of a broad
market introduction of electric vehicles: Due to fast progress in battery and pow-
ertrain systems’performanceincombinationwith economiesofscale,anuptoten
percentmarketshareofsuchvehicleshasbeenpredictedfor2020,quicklyrisingto
40 percent by 2025.
The two technical fields of automation and electrification are highly interlinked
due to similarities in (a) the electronics and data architecture of control, (b) the
cooperation in energy matters, and (c) the systemic character of the operating
environment.Inanidealworld,aself-drivingcar,e.g.,wouldnolongerrequireany

Laboratories in the USA recently found that these two opposite effects counter-

combination with shared mobility, though. Car sharing as a systemic mobility ser-
vice offer would reduce the total cost of ownership of automated and electric
vehicles, facilitate the management of battery charging, and reduce the number of
parkedcars.Andride-sharing,provided,e.g.,byself-drivingandelectricon-demand
shuttles, would in addition be highly cost-efficient and customer-oriented, and it
couldpotentiallyreducetheoverallnumberofcarsonthestreets.Theexploitationof
such synergies may accelerate innovation at both enabling technologies and appli-
cationslevels,whichwouldbeessentialforfullyrealizingthebenefitsofconnected,
automated, and electrified vehicles.
The International Forum on Advanced Microsystems for Automotive
Applications(AMAA)hasbeencoveringtheprogressinconnected,automated,and
electrified vehicles and the enabling technologies for many years. In view of the
above-mentioned considerations, the topic of the 22nd edition of AMAA, held at
BerlinonSeptember11–12,2018,was“SmartSystemsforClean,SafeandShared
Road Vehicles.” The 2018 AMAA conference also marked the transition from a
previous to a new Coordination and Support Action for its support, namely from
“Safe and Connected Automation in Road Transport” (SCOUT) of the con-
nectedautomateddriving.euinitiativeto“CoherentSupportforMobility.EStrategy”
(COSMOS) of the ECSEL Joint Undertaking. The AMAA organizers, VDI/VDE
Innovation + Technik GmbH together with the European Technology Platform on
Smart Systems Integration (EPoSS), greatly acknowledge this continuous funding
of their efforts by the European Union.
The chapters of this volume of the Lecture Notes in Mobility book series by
SpringerhavebeenauthoredbyengineersandresearcherswhoattendedtheAMAA
2018 conference to report on their recent research and innovation activities. The
papers presented had been selected by the members of the AMAA Steering
Committee and are also available through academic libraries worldwide. In our
roles as the organizers and the chairman of the AMAA 2018, we would like to
expressourgreatacknowledgmenttoalltheauthorsfortheirexcellentcontributions
to the conference and also to this book. We would also like to appreciate the
tremendous support that we have received from our colleagues at VDI/VDE-IT,
particularly from Ms. Monika Curto Fuentes of the AMAA office.
